12th Physics 2018 Set1 Delhi Board Paper Solution
Using the concept of free electrons in a conductor, derive the expression for the conductivity of a wire in terms of number density and relaxation time. Hence obtain the relation between current density and the applied electric field E.
Consider a conductor of length L and cross sectional area A , when potental difference v is applied across its end the current produced is i. If n is the number of electrons per unit volume in conductor and Vd is the drift velocity then,
I = -nAeVd Equaltion 1.
Where e is charge on electron , n is no of density
Electric field produced at each point, E = V/L Equation 2
if t is relaxation time and e is the electric field strength then drift velocity
Vd = -etE / m Equation 3
Substituting value in equation 1:
I = - neA(-etE / m )
I = (n e2t / m ) AE Equation 4
As e = V/L then,
I = n e2t A / m x V/L
Or
V/I = m/n e2t x L/A
From other law R = V/I = m/n e2t x L/A Equation 5

">Figure shows a potentiometer with a cell of 2.0 V and internal resistance 0.40 Ω maintaining a potential drop across the resistor wire AB. A standard cell which maintains a constant emf of 1.02 V (for very moderate currents up to a few mA) gives a balance point at 67.3 cm length of the wire. To ensure very low currents drawn from the standard cell, a very high resistance of 600 kΩ is put in series with it, which is shorted close to the balance point. The standard cell is then replaced by a cell of unknown emf Ωµ and the balance point found similarly, turns out to be at 82.3 cm length of the wire.
